There are rumors that igrotum has the Rolex database of serial numbers and sells replicas with the same serial numbers as the originals
I appreciate this video. No BS intro or story. You provided three examples with straight comparisons.

it is only a matter of time before super clones are on par and a perfect match. Then what will Rolex have to justify their inflated cost? I am excited to see the evolution of repilcas
I will always buy a counterfeit watch for these reasons. 1. the people selling fake watches treat you better than the people selling the real ones. 2. Rather be rob with a fake watch 3. its my money and i will buy whatever i want....
Best overview and guide that I've seen yet. Perfect examples too by showing the differences across the three watches. Thanks a lot for making this!
The timepieces of swissarex are of excellent quality. You wouldn't know they weren't the real deal.
My experience with swissarex was fantastic. The watch arrived quickly and was exactly as described.
Brilliant presentation. So detailed so precise had to watch it twice. Was real pleasure watching and listening. Applauding you mate 👏👏👏
Mega-clone sellers like ziarex must be in jail because they sell watches with identical serial numbers as original watches, which is illegal.
Thanks for the info. This is probably the most concise presentation of comparing replicas vs. authentic pieces that I've seen. I bought my Submariner 116610LN from a jeweler from the LA jewelry district 7 years ago. It came with box but no papers so that raised a red flag for me. Had the watch weighed, inspected the dial, fonts, etc. And lastly, I did have the caseback removed to inspect the movement just for piece of mind. I continue to enjoy the watch to this day. Buyer beware, especially in the secondary market. Thanks again for this invaluable information.

I guess we'll just walk around with a super loupe magnifier and call everyone out who's wearing a Rolex. These fakes are just getting too good. This video, like the rest on YT, is probably doing a better job selling the fakes than the real ones.

exactly, if you really need a microscope to tell the difference between 20,000$ watch and a 500$ watch then you are probably getting ripped off by 19,500$...
Thank you so much Anthony you were very helpful,I cant wait to start in the watch business 🧡
thank you very much for a super educational video, and great tip on how to start training ones eyes for the differences.
Great video could u do one on a datejust I know it’s the low end but would appreciate the help

Fascinating and very educational - thank you for posting. Can you provide the website you referred to for checking Rolex dial specs?
This is the best video I’ve seen so far, learned so much and appreciate the real effort even more
once in the mid 2000s while waiting for the bus in downtown san diego I was offered to inspect a "ROLEX" and the guy was only asking for $60.00. Politely declined and said I only had two dollars for bus fare. I believe he was hustling to get my wallet out because he walked away and a few minutes later his accomplice a few yards away walked with him. Pretending and dressing poor saved me from a mugging.

What site is mentioned in this minute? 13:31 can you share the link?
I hate it when people buy replicas, thinking they are original, and end up losing their money. Thats why mega-clone sellers like ziarex need to be stopped.
Wow, this video helped me appreciate the superior quality of Rolex watches. Thanks!!
Great job! Thank you very much

We need to stop criminals like ziarex from selling mega-clone replica watches because selling mega-clone replicas with the same serial number as the original watch is illegal.

Nice video. Where can I get the Frankenwatch?
The engraved W on the bracelet in Swiss Made is just the upside down M on the fakes and it looks way off. The real one uses a W with angled sides instead of an upside down M with straight sides
Fantastic video!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Awesome video Anthony! This stuff is so interesting to me.
after all those fakes comments i decided NOT to buy from swissarex
Very interesting video.
Cancel ziarex and mega clone watches. They are destroying the whole community of original watches and becoming a threat to the economy and dignity of Rolex.
Where can I buy a good super clone or Frankenstein?
I have real and fakes. The high quality fakes I wear casually & don't mind if they get banged up, lost, or stolen. I wear the real ones on relatively special occasions. Real or fake, if anyone asks, I tell them "It's fake". One friend knew the difference and asked why I would claim my real 2011 submariner was fake. It's simply part of my "remain unseen/unnoticed" and "live far below my means" strategic program...
Looks like there are two Swissarex companies listed on net. One with UK domain and other is based in Asia. Which one you guys are referring to when talking about swissarex ?

Honestly, it's extremely scary how your 14k+ watch can easily be replicated 90%+ for a mere $400-500 and obtain the same level of status on the street as the individual who dropped big cash to obtain that piece...

I have a frankenstein GMT... if your buying a watch just go to a horlogier and open it up. The biggest tells are internal and the sound of winding the movement
So I can buy a Rolex that no one can tell is fake without a microscope for a fraction of the price.
Isn’t this the guy who has multiple DUI’s and the same guy who committed grand theft in one of his own videos?
What are the speckles on the faces of all three watches?
Ok, I get why you call it a 'Frankenstein' now🤣

HAHA you're awesome Barry!
I love a good rep..
With the pearl analysis you stated that the paint in the bezel triangle wasn't perfect compared to the genuine watch, but then later stated on the bezel analysis that the franken had in fact used a genuine bezel insert.... so that nullifies that
never seen the quality of rolex like this. nice! what about those so called "super clones" ?
So I need a magnifying glass to see if my 600 dollar watch compares to A 14000 dollar watch I would say the remake makes the over pricing of watches look bad
I want the best fake not because I can't buy a real one but because I can't bring myself to pay that high for a watch. Where are the best replica.
7:57 on the real one, there's a white paint speck that shouldn't be there. I thought they were supposed to do a better job with the details
Can I get the serial number off a watch and then go to the store selling it and say it was stolen?
Workmanship & Quality Matters On Everyday Use. Fake Is Fake
Where can you buy the fake one?
igrotum is the only replica factory that sells and manufactures their watches themselves also have original serial numbers. That's why they are the best
If you know you are buying a fake watch what matters to you is it looks great, keeps good time and is only a fraction of the cost of the genuine article.
My watch looks like gold inside and well made looking 👌 😍!
you didn't link anything mentioned
I bought a fake once. it sucks.
Good intro
Vsf doing now a perfect identical copy the only thing that shows is a hyperclone is the clasp codes and the movement if you open them, but yes if you want to get a watch go to a certified dealer and not any online shops or fb marketplace you have 70% chance to get a fake
How to spot a fake Rolex 1. A pre-owned Rolex is listed for sale
The hands you can buy at Fiedler.
At 7:35 you said the second watch has a genuine bezel insert. Then at 16:36 you say the same bezel insert is "poor quality". There is no way that middle watch has a genuine bezel insert.
The jewels don't have anything to do with magnetism to my knowledge. They're lubricated and the movement of the wheel and balance staffs have no friction against the jewel. if there were no jewels, and the staffs were spinning inside a metal hole, the staffs of all the spinning wheels and balance would wear out quickly
Here's the bottom line: Fakes are SO good that you need a loupe to see the flaws. That means that NO-body will be able to tell if ;you are wearing a fake or genuine Rolex, if you've purchased a high end fake. The only real "tell" on a fake watch is the person wearing the watch. If they have a job that pays less than $100k per year, they are most likely wearing a fake.

Im 22, don’t have a Rolex salary, but I own a gen 5 digit bluesy that my dad gave me my junior year in high school because he never wore it & noticed I was gaining interest in watches, and Rolex in particular. I used to wear it to school (stupid), and looking back on it, its hard to understand how anybody believed that a 140lb 17yr old with no job had a real one. However… at the time, the only reason that I wore it to school, is because I thought a rolex was worth like $3k max… and I figured, my dads was really beat up, so it must be worth close to nothing, and thats how all of my peers saw it too. Now in hindsight, I understand that is not the case & take much better care of the watch. But point is, I don’t think the average person knows how much a Rolex is actually worth, and sometimes people can inherit them, and you’d never know.
igrotum is the only replica factory that operates on United States soil without getting caught by the authorities
The jewels are there to counteract balance and magnetism????? Don’t know where you got that from, but it is very wrong. The jewels are placed on moving parts with high friction points. They act as a bearing to decrease wear.
This is why you buy Casio and other cheap brands.
the latest comments about swissarex are coming from Turkish fake sellers so be careful.
igrotum is the only replica manufacturer that has stock in the US and EU
More important to identify the fake dealer!
I have a explorer 2 I baught back in 78 brand new and it cost me 9.50$ the last time I had it tuned up I was offered 40.000$ for the watch I turned it down it will be worth more when I pass and my daughter will have the right to sell it or give it to her husband I gave her my mother's watch so she should give it to her husband so they both have fine watchs! So you don't have to be rich to own a Rolex just enough money to save for one!!
Will someone llease send me a good fake rolex explorer ii?
large arm and forearm, Rolex on your wrist is disproportionately small ;) change to 44 mm RO Concept
Soon no one in there right mind will be paying these stupid crazy prices geting these dealers rich. Its very dumb to pay thousands of dollars for a watch that no one ever ever will stop you to verify that the watch is real or not.🤷🤷🤷🤷
im still surprised at the amount of dust , specs on the face in the real Rolex
They are even better now. Ones $400 ones over $10000. Take your pick.
I have no hope of distinguishing the fakes of that quality with the real deal.
The fakest part is the Swissarex comments below 😂😂😂
I only buy fakes
I have a fake rolex submariner that I paid only £5:00 for ..it has a sea dweller bezel and a small letter r engraved on one of the lugs ..
If you would’ve had a course I would’ve paid for it. I’m a part of your course right now for watch treating and it does not get this much detailed like you did.
I want to buy a fake since the AD never had a real one.
I know you’re a dealer and over analyzing it, but the machining inside of the case is not even close; there’s a difference between machining and laser, etching, and how the serial number is machined inside the case . Plus you just have to open the Watch. Not to mention a watch of this make and style should have its warranty card being this new. The European dealers won’t buy any of these newer model watches without box and papers.
I get mine straight from the AD

The watch in that video cant hold a candle to a ziarex. ziarex sets the gold standard.
great video thank you but if you can to make it even greaterer p1 p2 p3 .
Always buy it from AD.
That’s why I don’t waste time and open the back case
Kinda sad that in the comments are people shilling a fake watch site and they have not being taken down. All around the same time as well so from fake accounts?
